Introducing the Birdcage: A New Era of Art
The Birdcage is my latest obsession, figuratively speaking. As it relates to faith, the birdcage may seem like an obvious metaphor. But the birdcage itself, when you look at it, has something so beautiful about it. As well as a sense of imprisonment. The sin that God has saved me from and the healing He is doing now, that is my birdcage. The process is beautiful, although the sin was not. My story is beautiful, even though I didn't think so when I was still inside the cage. It's amazing to see how God uses our little stories to bring His Story together.
With that said, I told you I'd be uploading some artwork from this year. Here's the final product from my Design II class. We were to create a 3D object out of one 28x40 sheet of bristol (cardstock) paper; no glue, no cutting away from it. Here the final product:
For another project, titled Inside the Box, we were to build a white box with a 1.5-inch depth and imply at least 1 foot of space within it. Here's what I did:
Then, my real passion is creating things on my own.
However, I don't have as much time as I'd like to do things on my own. But I'll be working more on that these next few months.
Until we meet again!

Jess,
Your artwork is so delicate and beautiful! It is amazing that you could do all that with a single sheet of paper. Keep up the good work. I liked all of them.
Thank you so much Jane! That means a lot, this has been a stressful semester because of these projects but I like how most of them came out. =)
